Hello Abu,
I had to include <linux/module.h> or an error was issued about "THIS_MODULE".
What Kernel version are you using? I'm trying to compile it and I'm
getting the error:
[peter@ace m]$ make
make -C /lib/modules/3.3.7-1.fc17.x86_64/build SUBDIRS=`pwd` modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/3.3.7-1.fc17.x86_64'
CC [M] /tmp/m/m.o
/tmp/m/m.c:36:2: error: unknown field ‘ioctl’ specified in initializer
/tmp/m/m.c:36:2: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer

/tmp/m/m.c:36:2: warning: (near initialization for ‘m_fops.llseek’)

make[2]: *** [/tmp/m/m.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [_module_/tmp/m] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/3.3.7-1.fc17.x86_64'
make: *** [module] Error 2
According to:
http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v3.4.1/include/linux/fs.h#L1609
There is no .ioctl at struct file_operations...
Can you share how you've used perf/oprofile on your module/Kernel code?
